Montgomery Museum of Art & History

Making a Lasting Community Impact through Arts, History, and Culture

Mission: Our mission is to connect and engage the community through the arts and the preservation and interpretation of history

Vision: The Montgomery Museum of Art and History will be the première regional cultural center that offers creative, inspirational, and enriching programming and is an inclusive, collaborative gathering space for the entire community. 

At the Montgomery Museum, everything we do is rooted in serving our community, and your support makes that possible. Since moving to Main Street, the museum has grown into a more visible, welcoming, and active space in downtown Christiansburg. From expanded exhibits and educational programs to new partnerships and community events, we are reaching more people than ever before, and continuing to grow.

For Give Local 2026, we have set a goal of $65,000 to sustain and build on this momentum. Every donation directly supports the work that keeps the museum thriving: preserving our collections, creating meaningful exhibits, offering accessible educational programs, and maintaining a space where our community can gather, learn, and connect.

This year, we are also committed to showing you exactly how your support makes a difference. From the cost of archival supplies that protect local history, to improvements that make our building more accessible, your gift has a clear and lasting impact.

Looking ahead, your support will help us take the next steps forward, expanding our garden and connection to Pepper Street, and continuing to improve and restore our historic building. These projects are about more than growth, they are about ensuring that the museum remains an inclusive space for everyone.
